Christmas Spirit in a Jar
By noboundaries77 GOLD
Cedar Grove, New Jersey

Christmas spirit in a jar like the sparkle of the Christmas star Smells like gingerbread cookies and candy canes The whistle of the electric train Lights illuminate the warmth...

&ldquo;For I know the plans I have for you,&rdquo; declares the LORD, &ldquo;plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when &ldquo;For I know the plans I have for you,&rdquo; declares the LORD, &ldquo;plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you,&rdquo; declares the LORD, &ldquo;and will bring you back from captivity. I will gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you,&rdquo; declares the LORD, &ldquo;and will bring you back to the place from which I carried you into exile.&rdquo;<br /> <br /> -<br /> Jeremiah 29:11-14

What is depression really? Is there one concrete definition, or has the meaning loosened as our generation has continued it&#039;s downhill descent? To me, depression is simply my life. I&#039;m not suicidal. I&#039;m not a cutter. I don&#039;t hate the world. I don&#039;t dress completely in black. I&#039;m just sad. I&#039;ve been sad for what feels like my entire life, but that&#039;s not true. I was happy once and I can vaguely remember what it felt like, but I can&#039;t touch it. I can&#039;t get that happiness back, I don&#039;t know how. That&#039;s what depression is to me, knowing what happiness is, but never being able to touch it, to feel it.- Jenny Leigh

“Real isn't how you are made,' said the Skin Horse. 'It's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but really loves you, then you become Real.'<br /> <br /> 'Does it hurt?' asked the Rabbit. <br /> <br /> 'Sometimes,' said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. 'When you are Real you don't mind being hurt.'
